What’s left after reading a book?

Hello everyone! Let's talk today about how we read books. Do you make highlights? Do you mark some quotes?

Do you make a diary after the book or during the book? How do you read? I do all of this stuff. I do highlights, I write quotes separately to the diary sometimes, and also I might write down my thoughts about something.

I find it very useful for the speech, for widening your mind, and for absorbing more. Generally, I believe – it's not about how many books you have read, but it's about how much you took from the book. A book, which is the same for all of us, speaks about you, what you see inside.

It's very interesting. How do you do this? What's after the book? Do u remember them? Are they wasted inside or do they grow into something more?
